[Verse 1]

I hate you make me nervous

I always say the wrong thing

It doesn't matter anyway

Ain't nothing gonna change, no

I hate the situation

I'm always runnin' into you

And when I don't I'm hopin' to

I hate feeling so confused, oh

[Chorus]

Don't wanna feel the way I do

Just what I'm goin' through

Don't wanna feel the way I do

Just what I'm goin' through

[Verse 2]

I hate that you're perfect

No way your ass comes out so clean

Somebody's playin' tricks on me

Can't see what I wanna see

I hate that you still call me

Just when I done made up my mind

To leave your perfect ass behind

I hear you soundin' so fine

[Chorus]

Don't wanna feel the way I do

Just what I'm goin' through

Don't wanna feel the way I do

Just what I'm goin' through

(I know it's just what I'm goin' through, baby)

Don't wanna feel the way I do

Just what I'm goin' through

(Feel the way I do, for you)

Don't wanna feel the way I do

Just what I'm goin' through

[Bridge]

How else can I let you go?

When the man I know

Makes me wanna be your girl

(I wanna be)

Outliving the love I've saved

Fighting the dreams away

Oh, I wanna be your girl

Just wanna be, just wanna be

Your girl, your girl, oh

[Verse 3]

I hate that I can't tell you

Left guessing if you’ll ever know

I'm tryin' not to let it show

Mind game just to let you go

I hate that you don't want it

I hate that I'm still so sweet

As if it might change somethin'

When you're ready, you'll remember me

I hate I know your birthday

I know all of your favorite shit

When you were talkin', I was listenin'

Yet I still can't win

And I hate that you don't call me

Like to think that we're still cool

And now I'm feelin' like a fool

Every time it rings. I hope it's you

(I hate the way...)

[Outro]

I was so good to you, to you

I'd be good for you, for you

I know I'm good for you, for you

Because I'm good to you

I was so good to you, to you

I'd be good for you, for you

I know I'm good for you

Because I'm good to you

I just wanna be free

I just wanna be free

I just wanna be free

I just wanna be free

(Like the love I was savin')

I just wanna be free

I just wanna be free
